High character players with football intelligence
Icege replied to Mr. Scot's topic in Carolina Panthers
It's* -
It will be interesting seeing how many people give credit where credit is due to Fitterer instead of trying to tie the albatross that was Rhule around his neck. When Rhule signed it was made clear that he had total control (right down to what was posted on social media by the marketing department). Still, that didn't stop a lot of fans from trying to put that at Fitt's feet as well. I'm very interested to see how much Fitterer adapts to this current coaching staff. We'll get to see what the consistencies are and be able to better determine what Fitterer values while also getting a cross-sectional look into what Reich is looking for as well. Going to be a fun few seasons!

It's hard not to be excited with the draft just a month out. The team upgraded the coaching staff nearly across the board, retained the OL (and arguably upgraded it by replacing Elflein with McCray), upgraded TE, lost Moore but gained Thielen + Chark at WR, and has the core parts of an ascending defense in place. Big bodies are being added to the defensive line and some back end aid has been brought in (Von Bell). The defense could use additional depth at LB, CB, and on the edge, but that can be addressed after the #1 pick is addresses the open role of franchise QB. Nice to feel full of hope rather than having to find hope like the last few seasons.

Interesting Opinion / Analysis of Frank's Offense and QB personnel
Icege replied to MHS831's topic in Carolina Panthers
The tallest WRs being 6'5", the shortest WR being 5'7", and the league average being 6' makes a 6'2" body one of the bigger ones out there. Add a pinch of 4.4 speed and you got a WR that Reich will be eager to get involved so long as he can learn his responsibilities for when the ball isn't coming his way. -
Interesting Opinion / Analysis of Frank's Offense and QB personnel

Just 20min and hearing how Reich likes having big bodied WRs makes me wonder how TMJ is going to do in this new offense. -
Interesting Opinion / Analysis of Frank's Offense and QB personnel
Icege replied to MHS831's topic in Carolina Panthers
Saw Scott Bolander's post on the Panthers subreddit sharing an hour-plus long deep dive on Reich's offense and lost the thread + video, so I'm amped that 4MR got with him to dive in further. Loved hearing that Reich will never embarass a player. After the last two HCs, can't help but wonder how grateful guys will be to not have to worry about their coach dragging them whenever they speak to the press. -
Panthers to Send 11 Representatives to Ohio St Pro Day
Icege replied to MHS831's topic in Carolina Panthers
There's an argument to be made that better decisions have been happening with Nicole in the room instead of Rhule... -
Eager to see how this signing plays out. At the very least, TMJ and the other young WRs are going to be getting route running clinics from Thielen. Current red zone weapons: Sanders, TMJ, Hurst, Thielen, Tremble? Not bad.
-
IF a trade down were to happen, I can't imagine the move being made anytime soon. They've got plenty of time to continue vetting QB1 and while they might find themselves interested in more than one of them they might also fall head over heels for a particular prospect.
-
I'm guessing that Frank and the gang are looking at that UGA game as what he can be coached up to be. When the biggest knock on Stroud has been how he wilts under pressure, he went out against one of the best defenses in the country (with NFL talent littered across it) and put on his best performance yet. Following that up by putting on a show at the combine only solidified it further. Can't coach 5'10" up to 6'3"

So... you're looking to prove that you're right? The thread title says to help you understand, but based on this reply and other's that you have made in this thread I'm led to believe that you're just looking to argue.
-
Are you trying to understand the move, be convinced about it being beneficial, looking to vent, or just looking to prove that you're right?
-
Damn, the TE group just got leaps and bounds better. Wouldn't mind the team still looking at taking a TE in the draft with higher upside than running it back with Ian Thomas.
-
Really happy for Baker. Things didn't go well here, but he seemed to grow a lot as a professional during his struggles. Hope things work out for him in TB, so long as it means losing to the Panthers
-
Oh my damn All the offense needs now is a deep threat WR, Foreman or Williams to tote the rock, and the QB that the team selects at #1 overall aaaaahhhhhhh
-
Ngl was fretting a little bit over finding a capable mentor that isn't a coach for the rookie QB, but Dalton is an excellent choice to help the #1 overall pick learn how to be a pro.

How would you build the roster and draft?
Icege replied to BeenPounding's topic in Carolina Panthers
In a way that would likely result in members of the Huddle calling me everything but a child of God -
On the surface, this assessment is accurate and scares the Hell out of me. However, none of those guys are the athletes that CJ is. None of them can move like him. His acceleration seems to require some time, but he can move a lot better than those other guys. My hope is that if he's the guy that Frank and co. can coach him up to play like he did vs. UGA.

Tony Pauline: CJ Stroud or Anthony Richardson
Icege replied to TheSpecialJuan's topic in Carolina Panthers
If they believe that AR-15 is the guy and can convince Houston or Indy to swap with them and regain some lost assets... -
Shaq staying means that armchair capologists are having an aneurysm which makes it even more awesome
